No. As a rule we don't accept feature requests at all - it's patches or
nothing. You are free to add such 'requests' to the wishlist in the Wiki,
just don't expect anyone to start work on the feature.
So the correct solution would be to either contract a developer to write a
patch for DVB-S Radio or tell your customers that you are unable to provide
that feature at this time.
As far as your request for someone to work with on those data streams. The
correct approach would have been to start work yourself, do as much as
possible and then come to the list with what you have learnt so far. Coming
to the list before you've got a specific question or written any code gives
the impression that you want someone else to do much of the work.
